Brazilian cuisine

Brazilian cuisine reflects the country's size and diversity, blending Portuguese, African, and indigenous influences with regional variations.

Feijoada—a black bean stew with pork—is the national dish.

The churrasco tradition of grilled meats defines southern regions, while the northeast favors seafood stews like moqueca made with coconut milk and palm oil.

Street foods include coxinha (fried chicken croquettes) and pão de queijo (cheese bread).

We had açaí bowls for breakfast and picanha at a churrascaria for dinner.
